Consider volunteer of the year

Several people have taken the time to write out some great explanations as to why they believe their particular nominee deserves to be recognized as the 2013 volunteer of the year.

We hope readers will take time to review those nominations and help select the honoree by writing us a note on their choice or going to the online poll at grandcoulee.com

So much needs to be done in any community to keep it moving in a good direction. Volunteers who work for the good of all simply because it’s the right thing to do make progress possible. Honoring one to honor all of them, we think, is the least the community can do thank them and encourage more volunteerism.

Your votes will be accepted until the date turns to Jan. 8.

The Star will announce the the honoree in the Jan. 15, 2014 issue.
